Version 4.6.21
TThe Unidata THREDDS Development Team released an updated version of the THREDDS Data Server (TDS) (and bundled netCDF-Java/Common Data Model (CDM) library) on June 30th, 2022. This release contains updates to third-party libraries, including security updates.

Notices
Special note about the TDS, netCDF-Java, and support
The current stable version of netCDF-Java is v5.5.3 (the current stable version of the TDS 4.6.x is v4.6.21). The netCDF-Java code base is now located at https://github.com/Unidata/netcdf-java. This release, 4.6.21, is a security release of the 4.6.x line of development only in support of the TDS. For netCDF-Java issues, please open an issue on the new repository. Security fixes, such as upgrading third-party dependencies with known open vulnerabilities, will continue to be applied to the 4.6.x branch until August 2022, to allow server administrators time to transition to the new release of the TDS.
All support for TDS 4.6.x will end after August 2022. Please see here for information on upgrading to TDS 5.x.
